Sporran calling
- Who repaired it?
I did
- How long did the repair take?
5 min
- How much did it cost?
NA
- How was the object repaired?
One of the clips had snapped on the back of my sporran. I used a small cable tie that I already had to fasten the chain back onto the clasp.
- Why did you repair the object?
I didn’t see the point in buying a new one to replace it when I knew I could at least bodge it back together again.
- Why do you think it is important to repair things?
It’s good to give some things a decent life span and get as much use out of them as possible.
- What would be important to you to be included in a Repair Declaration for Ireland?
An end to built in obsolescence.
- What actions do you think could help Westmeath achieve a vibrant repair culture?
We need more awareness about the damage we’re doing to the planet to produce a lot of the stuff we use. I think that would encourage people to try and get the most out of the things they have.
